Education: Armed Forces
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what recent discussions she has had with her counterparts in the devolved Administrations about harmonising support for mobile children in Armed Forces families.
Answered by Georgia Gould
I recognise that there are particular challenges which children and young people from Armed Forces families can encounter in moving between different education systems, and I am engaging with military families and organisations who support them to help ensure that Service children are properly supported across the UK. My department regularly engages with the devolved administrations on matters of shared interest, including support for mobile pupils who have special educational needs and disabilities.
